    What will it do? 3 uses or a few important ones.

  • ThisMustBeHalo     29th Nov 2011 Member 0 Permalink
    could be used in nukes, nuclear reactors and smoke detectors....you could use it as to keep the contents of a nuke from spilling out too, since its solid

    well, apparently i did some of my homework; Amercium IS used in smoke detectors, but isnt used in nukes or reactors. according to the wiki page you posted, it's a by-product from reactors, so that could be a possible property(forming from reactions). also according to the wiki, proposed uses are a "nuclear battery" and "fuel for deep-space exploration". since it's radioactive with neutrons(TPT property), it could still be used, unrealisitcally, in nukes.
    P.S. sorry for long post

    It's a good idea.can be used in smoked detectors.I'm for it!

    You don't actually need it to make a smoke detector...
    It wouldn't have much use in TPT, unless some special effects were added. ;)
